Homemade biscuits

I bought some silicone baking trays the other day so what better way to try them out than with homemade biscuits!  Big boy helped me as usual while the little monkey is asleep, we also made Peppa Pig cakes which he has been asking for since we bought them, he doesn't even watch Peppa Pig!

Fathers Day

So we took the boys (or did me and the boys take Daddy??) to Trethorne for Fathers Day, they had the best time ever this time round.  There were newborn piglets and lambs, big boy even helped feed one of them with me, very brave!

They both had great fun in the sandpit and the softplay bits, but the favourite bit was the animals, big boy gave me instructions as to which ones i was allowed to feed (who is the parent exactly?), while the little one was running around and pointing a lot, he didn't want to leave the animals at all, he would have happily stayed there all day!

Rain rain go away!

Ok so i'm not a sun-worshipper by any means but i'm a bit sick of the rain now, it's June!  Even the big boy has started huffing and saying Rain Stop!

We had to go into town today to pick out some Fathers Day cards, they really aren't into crafting to make their own, hopefully next year!  We did manage to pick up a couple of Christmas presents though for various hampers, got to love the special offers!

In other news, the big boy weewee's on the toilet have continued!  We have progressed to pull up pants now in the hope it spurs him on a bit more, he gets so pleased with himself when he goes on the big boy toilet, nearly as pleased as I am!

Our wedding anniversary

Rich had the day off yesterday as it was our 2nd wedding anniversary.  We took the boys to their regular playgroup where they had a paddling pool out so guess who dived right in, yep, the littlest horror, we had to strip him down to his nappy so he could splash around getting everyone wet!

After that we took them to the aquarium again as they both love it in there, they love running free and looking at all the different fish and at least it was somewhere dry, i'm beginning to worry the UK is going to disappear in a big puddle with all this rain!!

I really must sort out some photos for on here too!!

He asked to use the toilet, finally!

So biggest boy has been sat on the toilet a fair few times but to no avail, until this evening!  I told him that one of his friends was a big boy now and didn't wear stinky nappies anymore, i didn't think he believed me as he gave me his "yeah whatever mum" look. 

But, a few minutes later he stood up in the bath holding his crown jewels and said "toilet mummy" so i whipped him out of the bath and sat him on the toilet and he did his first ever big boy weewee, i'm so proud and even better was that daddy was there to see it too as he often misses big moments due to working. 

Let's hope its not a one-off!
